Saigon- The Greatest Story Never Told



I heard that when Saigon was talking about his up and coming release, The Greatest Story Never Told, that he had said it would be the best thing you have ever heard.  And honestly it pretty much is. Saigon’s raps are rich and full of character, something that a lot of mainstream rappers seem to lack. His beats are well executed and always seem to have some amazing driving samples. I love the little scratch work that is done on this album, it’s never over done or cheap sounding. My only problem with The Greatest Story Never Told is the length of the album, which is just shy of an hour and twenty minutes. Don’t get me wrong every minute is filled with amazing music, it’s just that I think for the average listener it can be a bit too drawn out. If this would have been released as a two disc set or even two separate albums it would have solved this problem. That being said no one should miss out The Greatest Story Never Told.
